Not surprising for entrenched money interests to neglect our obligations to future generations. Do we really need to read more of Mr. Young's drivel? My God, how we can justify most anything nowadays. Sadly, not enough people stand up to these blabbering idiots. The science supporting the need to end fossil fuel production and use has been solid for 50 years now. We are simply blinded by glitz and glitter and the foolish words of someone like Young. A sad state humanity is in.
A very bad precedent, unless you missed history class. Haiti is being used as an example. Who gets to define "failed state"? Give us a few more years. The direction we're headed is more than clear.
I have been complaining in writing to BTC and URCA for much more than a decade. Over and over. Even Letters to the Editor, which were published complaining about BTC. They don't care. They don't care. I rarely ever received a response at all, and never a word from urca. ever. So, these are crocodile tears. When BTC was sold, a few connected people made millions on the deal, and are still making millions, all the while BTC cut service, cut employees, cut investment and then lie about it. BTC should be in court for fraud. They have for year after year advertised something which they knowingly fail to provide. This is the definition of fraud. Where is the justice for the Bahamian people? I am beginning to think it is all a criminal enterprise.
If you have been paying attention the last few decades, who has been right? Some tree huggers are hypocrites. Most have been right regarding where we are now. It wasn't the conservative business class that lied us into this mess? We must be reading different publications. Try staying away from FOX News. There is an abundance of good science out there that has been spot on for many years. The heating of the planet is only a surprise to those who have had their head in the sand, or in their wallets.
What has The Bahamas done to modify our own behaviour? What have we done to educate our people? Yet, here we go again, with our hands out? The Carbon credits and associated programs are nothing but financing schemes. No matter how much money comes our way, the people will never see it. Just like before, just like now.
If we want to see the rot that the least of us must endure in this country, look no further. Show me a Christian here who reads and understands the bible. Can't do it, can you? The real danger to our country is the political class. That danger seems not to be noticed by the bible thumping gay haters. No wonder we don't want an educated populace. We might make progress towards becoming an enlightened country.

Absolutely correct. The troops are being softened for when they have to raise their guns against their own.
